    It’s not pirating if you’re obtaining a video that they’re making available to you for free lmao.

    Otherwise it would be “pirating” to just load up YouTube.com in your browser and watching any old video.

      Youtube doesn’t let you download the videos directly. If they did, you’d be right. The fact that the original yt-dl was shut down by Youtube kinda disproves your point all by itself.
